DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Sink repair at your home in Woodmansey

We repair chips, cracks and crazing in ceramic basins and vanity units, with the colour and shine matched to the basin. Nothing is taken off the wall. If you’re dealing with chips on the rim or front edge and damage to a basin in a vanity unit, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole basin
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Woodmansey: your questions answered

Do you work for landlords with property near Beverley station?

Of course: pictures and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

Do you work for schools and businesses in Woodmansey?

Yes, commercial work is part of what we do, and our accreditations include CHAS and Constructionline. Photos and a few details are enough for a quote.

Are there extra charges for Woodmansey?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Is a chipped basin repairable?

Yes, it’s one of our most common jobs. The repair is shaped and polished to blend in.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Woodmansey included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can a cracked sink be fixed?

Surface cracks can usually be repaired. A crack that leaks right through generally means a new basin.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a couple of hours for most chips. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use. Somewhere as small as Woodmansey, access is typically the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the sink repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. First the basin is cleaned and the damage checked.
  2. We fill the chip or crack and shape it to the original profile.
  3. We mix the colour to suit the glaze.
  4. We polish the repair to blend it in.
  5. You can generally use the basin later that day or the next.

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Fittings shouldn’t be over-tightened
  • Keep straighteners away from the basin
  • Store toiletries on a shelf
  • Have new chips repaired quickly

Wipe the basin over after use, and steer clear of harsh chemicals.

Chips near the waste or taps can let water in, which can stain the repair area. Early repair keeps it a small job.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Different materials, different repairs

Composite and resin

Cast mineral and resin basins are common in vanity units. Chips and scratches can be filled and matched, with colour mixed on site.

Period and antique

Period basins often have marks and character worth keeping. We repair them sympathetically and leave the character intact.
